Ice Cube has offered to move his BIG3 basketball league championship game for Floyd Mayweather, Jr's boxing comeback - if the price is right.

Floyd plans to face off against UFC tough guy Conor McGregor at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on 26 August (17) - the same night as the BIG3 final.

The rapper and actor, who runs the basketball league, has revealed he's in talks with boxing bosses and they're close to a deal that will prompt him to move his sports showdown.

Appearing on U.S. sports talk show Undisputed on Monday (19Jun17), the It Was a Good Day hitmaker said he will move his big game "if they (promoters) do what they're supposed to do and make us happy", adding, "I think we can get there."

Confirmed: Conor McGregor vs Floyd Mayweather finalised

After a year of rumours, two of combat sports biggest personalities have been confirmed for one of the biggest fights of the decade. Initially reported by Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports, a “well-placed source” revealed that a fight confirmation was just hours away for the highly anticipated boxing bout between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor. Both men have since verified reports by posting on their respective social media accounts with McGregor posting that “The Fight is On.” while Mayweather stated that “It’s Official”: https://twitter.com/TheNotoriousMMA/status/875101558584856578 https://twitter.com/FloydMayweather/status/875104754334023680 The bout scheduled for August 26th in Las Vegas will see Mayweather come out of retirement for the third time in his career in the hopes to extend his undefeated record to 50-0, the largest in the sports history. Conor McGregor meanwhile, the current UFC lightweight champion, will make his professional boxing debut in a fight predicted to make &dollar;100m for each man. Talk of a Mayweather – McGregor boxing began in May of last year as both men engaged in a war of words through the media leading the Irish fighter to successfully apply for a boxing licence.

Ice Cube Still Plans to Appear on Real Time Friday

Ice Cube added sports mogul to his impressive resume after quietly making plans to launch a U.S. summer basketball league earlier this year (17). The former N.W.A. star, who is a fervent Los Angeles Lakers fan, teamed up with a few former NBA players to start up the travelling league.

The eight-team league features a handful of retired players, with basketball great Gary Payton among the coaches.

Cube's business partner Jeff Kwatinetz, who is the deputy executive director of the NBA Players Association, is also part of the brain trust behind the new initiative.

"A lot of these guys can still play once they retire - just not the back-to-backs or four games in five nights," the rapper says. "I started to look at three-on-three basketball and wondered, 'Why isn't this played on a pro level?'"

Mike Tyson's ear bites have left a deep impression on his boxing biography .
The evening Mike Tyson bit both of Evander Holyfield's ears remains the most memorable of a career that was as decorated as it was controversial. Even at the age of 50 and 12 years after his final fight, Tyson remains perhaps boxing's best-known living figure and one of its finest heavyweights.His 2002 defeat to Lennox Lewis may have proved the biggest match-up he was involved in, but it was the rematch with Holyfield, on June 28 1997, that defines him more than any other.
